The following excerpt is from Magellan Aerospace Ltd. v. First Energy Capital Corp., 2000 ABQB 678 (CanLII):

The Underwriters also allege an unjust enrichment in favour of the Lenders at the expense of the flow-through shareholders and the Underwriters. Unjust enrichment requires: (1) an enrichment; (2) a corresponding deprivation; and (3) the absence of any juristic reason for the enrichment (see Sorochan v. Sorochan, 1986 CanLII 23 (SCC), [1986] 5 W.W.R. 289 (S.C.C.) at 294).
